Why did nu-metal die so fast?
>>65528007
Poptimism
It lasted about as long as most forms of popular music, which is 5 years on average.
>>65528083
So why isn't dubstep dead yet?
>>65528007
9/11
>>65528315
it is
>you will never be 8 years old and listen to Disturbed for the first time in 1999 ever again
>>65528007
cuz wayne static took to many drugs
>>65528315
kek
>>65528007
Because it's an awful genre
>>65528315
what are you talking about
dead in this context means culturally irrelevant
it doesn't mean one kid still posting fl studio audio dumps on soundcloud so it's still alive
>>65528880
This. And it called itself metal.
>tfw a good friend of yours still religiously listens to Slipknot and Disturbed
>>65528315
edms peaked my dude
>>65529044
>Slipknot and Disturbed
>in 2016
>>65529163
So what's the new thing now?
I usually just listen to deep house or lounge beats these days
>>65528880
Classic metal sucks even more
>>65529382
tropical house probably until someone comes out with a big indietronica song
think fireflies by owl city with a dance beat
That man's hair
It's like a generic, over-designed anime protagonist got struck by a bolt of lightning

How can you post that shit and not kill yourself? Is this satire?
>>65530225
>until someone comes out with a big indietronica song

It was called The Postal Service
>>65528007
It hasn't; have you heard the new Machine Head? it makes me want to vomit.
soad was the only half decent NM band and that's because they actually pushed the envelope.
>>65530386
Most of what we think of as nu metal was 2000-2005.
>>65530883
Deftones
>>65531182
I suppose, always thought of them as more grunge/alt rock though. With Pearl Jam and that whole crowd
>>65528007
Shitty melodic metalcore replaced it
>>65528935
Which is bad because metal is the worst genre.
>>65531182
Not nu metal. They always had a distinctly slower, sharper edge than that.
>>65531409
There's plenty of good metal. It's all either very inaccessible (the extreme stuff) or literally pop music with distortion (power metal etc). The shit stuff is the tryhard edgy stuff, the buttrock, the trve kvlt black metal made by neckbeards, and the endless sea of good cop/bad cop vocals.
>>65528007
Because it fell... Down with the sickness

>you will never be in middle school and picking fights because you listened to Down with the Sickness too many times again
>>65528007
Because Slipknot couldn't carry the whole genre on its back while only releasing an ablum every 4 or 5 years
>>65531762
Not to mention getting progressively shittier with each passing album...
What made Slipknot good at first was the rawness and unbridled hate and frustration behind the music. As soon as it got tepid and clean it fell flat.
>>65528007
Over saturation and the fact that this isn't a very good genre.
Not that o hate it but its not very good or interesting
>>65528007
SKIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
NEEEEEEEEEE
MAAAAAAAAAAANNNN
